Krash has been having a hard time recalling everything he learned during calendar time over the years, mainly the order of the days and months and which was which. He has been VERY into his Legos lately, so I grabbed my Sharpie and a few Legos and got to work. I chose to make them in a color pattern to make it self correcting for him.

He was very impressed and within a day had it all figured out.

Once I felt he was more confident, I mixed the days and months together like this {below}. First he had to sort them, and then stack them in order! The days are a bit longer than the months, you could make all of them the same size AND color for an even greater challenge!

I have the stacks sitting on a shelf and he has gone back to them on his own several times since I introduced them!

Learning with Legos is a big deal for many kids! I have tons of other ideas pinned to my Lego Theme board here…
